Chapter 188 The Propaganda Bookstore in the Taiji Palace
"What kind of ecstasy is there in this book that makes His Majesty so addicted?"
"The prince has just overstepped his bounds. If His Majesty were to pursue it, he would definitely be reprimanded again."
"Look at your majesty and empress, they still don't respond. They just keep looking at the books in their hands. What are they writing?"
"Don't we also have books in our hands? We'll know if we take a look."
In the Tai Chi Hall, the ministers were discussing in low voices.
Many people were filled with curiosity when they saw the emperor and empress being so addicted, and couldn't help but open the book they didn't want to read just now.
"Brother Yao, look at them." Cheng Yaojin whispered to Li Jing beside him.
Li Jing did not respond. Cheng Yaojin looked over and saw that Li Jing was constantly flipping through the book in his hand like everyone else.
Looking aside, even Qin Qiong was also fascinated.
Cheng Yaojin was very curious about what happened to them, but the key point was that he, Cheng Yaojin, didn't know a few words.
This book seems a bit difficult.
"Zhao Chen, look at them, they are all reading the storybook you wrote." Li Ruoshuang's face was full of surprise.
Although she also read the storybook written by Zhao Chen, she also found it extremely attractive.
But Li Ruoshuang only thought that she had rarely seen such a story. Unexpectedly, even the ministers in the court were obsessed with it.
"Zhao Chen, when our Wangyou Bookstore opens in ten days, there will definitely be a huge crowd. The first batch of guests will definitely be these ministers in front of us."
"Needless to say, I really didn't expect Zhao Chen that you have such abilities. Darling, I've been to court meetings many times, but I've never seen such a weird scene."
Qin Huaiyu and Cheng Chumo both had shock and excitement on their faces.
The script that Zhao Chen wrote casually actually made the entire Tai Chi Palace ministers obsessed with it.
Of course, except for one or two illiterate generals.
"Zhao Chen, what kind of ecstasy soup did you pour into His Majesty and others..."
"Zhao Chen, I want to see the follow-up!"
Cheng Yaojin walked to Zhao Chen. Before he finished speaking, he heard the emperor's voice from behind him.
When he looked back, he saw that the emperor was already walking over, holding the book in his hand with a look full of expectation.
"This follow-up storybook will not be sold until Wangyou Bookstore opens in ten days." Zhao Chen and Li Shimin said.
"Zhao Chen, can you reveal the plot in advance? I'm very curious. What happened to Jia Yucun's daughter?"
"This little baby is so pitiful. Why was he kidnapped since he was a child?" Empress Changsun also walked over and looked at Zhao Chen expectantly.
This chapter only goes to the fourth chapter of the Red Mansion, where the unlucky girl meets the unlucky man and the gourd monk judges the gourd case.
When Queen Changsun saw Jia Yucun's daughter being abducted by traffickers, she thought of Zhao Chen who had been away from her for sixteen years.
She even wondered whether Jia Yucun would be as lucky as herself and finally find her daughter.
"this……"
"A strange book, it's really a strange book!" The exclamation from behind made Zhao Chen, who didn't know how to speak, breathe a sigh of relief.
"When writing about the boudoir, it is extremely solemn, but the beauty is already full of paper; when it comes to writing about the boudoir, it is extremely plump, but the beauty is full of eyelashes."
"A wonderful book, really a wonderful book, a genius, really a genius." Fang Xuanling looked at Zhao Chen excitedly.
Fang Xuanling also read many story books in his spare time, but there was no one that could make him so fascinated by it.
"This book can be said to be the best storybook. Mr. Zhao, will there really be a sequel in ten days?"
"Mr. Zhao, when will it open in ten days? Please let me go and watch the ceremony."
"Master Zhao is a great talent, and Li Ji admires him."
Soon all the ministers in the court had finished reading the script in their hands. Looking at Zhao Chen at this moment, no one showed the same contempt as before.
Except for some generals, those who can stand here are extremely knowledgeable.
But this script made it impossible for them to find any fault at all.
Everyone wants to know what the follow-up plot will be like, what will happen to King Jia, Shi Xue, and what will happen to Baoyu and Daiyu.
"Dear elders, Wangyou Bookstore will officially open at noon on the tenth day. The Story of Stone will be released later. If you are interested, you can come and watch the ceremony."
"The grand opening reward is a 20% discount on books. There are also other story books for you elders to choose from." Zhao Chen held up his hands and said to the ministers in front of him.
"Okay, okay, I'll be there in ten days."
"Mr. Zhao has great literary talents. I also want to buy the rest of the story books and read them."
"I will definitely be there when the time comes."
All the ministers surrendered to Zhao Chen one after another.
The originally solemn and solemn Tai Chi Hall has really become a vegetable market at this moment.
When Li Ruoshuang and others saw such friendly gestures from civil and military officials in the court, smiles broke out on their faces.
They were previously worried that Zhao Chen's script would not interest the ministers of the DPRK and China.
Now...
"Zhao Chen, you are so amazing." Li Ruoshuang said in Zhao Chen's ear, her voice trembling slightly with excitement.
Zhao Chen had a smile on his face.
If it weren't for Wangyou Bookstore's reputation, he wouldn't have come here today.
After all, it is not that easy to argue with people like Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji.
But thinking that if the ministers in the DPRK could promote the bookstore for free, Zhao Chen made up his mind to come.
At this moment, it was obvious that Zhao Chen had succeeded.
"Cough——" Li Shimin had returned to his seat at this moment and coughed lightly.
When the ministers heard the voice, they cupped their hands with Zhao Chen and retreated to their seats one by one.
"Zhao Chen, your words are well written, so I will not pursue your rude behavior in the Tai Chi Palace.
Li Shimin's words made Li Chengqian, who was already preparing to trip up Zhao Chen, speechless.
Li Chengqian opened his mouth and held the script in his hand tightly.
"I've read this story, so it's time to get down to business." Li Shimin said again.
The faces of the ministers in the DPRK suddenly turned pale. They glanced at Zhao Chen and shook their heads secretly.
Zhao Chen's words really shocked them.
But it didn't make them think that Zhao Chen could still successfully defeat Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji in the debate.
"Zhao Chen, is it okay?" Li Ruoshuang asked softly beside Zhao Chen.
"There should be no problem." Zhao Chen smiled slightly.
"Zhao Chen, I know you are talented and knowledgeable, so I want you to be the deputy examiner for this autumn exam."
"But considering your age, you all are really worried. I agree to let you debate strategy with Fang Xuanling and military formations with Changsun Wuji."
"What do you want to say?" Li Shimin said slowly, looking at Zhao Chen with a smile.
Queen Changsun on the side clasped her hands together and looked troubled.
Regardless of whether Zhao Chen agrees or not, he will be embarrassed today.
Unless, Zhao Chen really won the argument.
But……
Queen Changsun looked at Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji.
The two of them just glanced at Empress Changsun and then looked away.
Obviously, the two of them would not hold back on Zhao Chen later.
"I think……"
"Okay, since you agreed, let's get started."
Before Zhao Chen could speak, Li Shimin waved his hand and said.?
